Downieville classic racers crashing

[epicoutdoorracin2010]

These riders here need a good tip... Inexperience will get your ass kicked!! Now try again, just with more speed, lean back, and pick out your line when racing down the trail. Practicing with video games don't count for practice!!

[rabs2020]

you need more speed and lean back

[m015094]

These people suck. 

[henriquebus]

type in "ski crashes" in the youtube search and click the video with stars in the title to be shocked!

[mariodsoi]

bande de merde

[trevtbmxer]

ouch but lean back more

[oprgreg]

its all you BRO!!!! hahaha

[gusthepugisownt]

really?! how do you crash the second you get on there? keep trying though!!

[ausydownhilling]

lol if they had real bikes...

[ianer666]

i like the laugh at the end haha

[nickybgoesdownhill]

im unbreakable! HOW funny!

props to guys having a blast at the section looks real tough! and cant be easy with loadsa people drinking beers in the sun giving 'helpful' pointers!

[Flare1564]

Riding a hard-tail in that section isn't the brighest idea. I find it easier to clear sections like that when you attack it and try to take it with some speed. If you take it at a moderate pace and second guess your self, you will eat the rock.

[mohsin19999995]

in first he says hes unbreakable.lol

[nitrogiant]

Just my 2 cents....dudes, you have to PEDAL through and attack that section. And don't put it in a granny gear, put it in a gear that will make you accelerate.

All the x-country geeks in this video are coming into it thinking that they are going to fall.

We have a tougher section than that in freakin' Southern Ontario. PEDAL.

[laydowninthegrass]

what would you guys say is the hardest trail/part in downieville?

[falorethegreat]

hahaha i remember cleaning this on a rigid cannondale at age 12. (but more recently eating shit here on a vpfree)

Good post

[W3dgy123]

I was there this weekend and that rock garden is no joke. there is a video of Mark Weir clearing the that spot, makes it look sooo easy...

[deerein15]

All you trash talkers either can't remember where you started or have no idea how hard this really is.

[mxfreak21]

that shit aint hard..... btw

[Dstompe222]

its not hard if you keep your speed, if you try and crawl through it however, you WILL fall

[justincarson]

thats what u get for riding HARDTAILS

[mxfreak21]

YAY ! im going there this weekend ! : )

[motoxracer426]

i love downieville, so fun and not that hard to fucking bomb... dont know what these guys problems are

[dirtTdude]

i want to see a video of you cleaning that section

[teamkvs]

@motoxracer426 they dont have 29er

[Partspare]

Check out the first guy. He's riding down the slope leaning forward with his weight on the handlebars. Never had a chance.

[flowerphone]

omg im shitting myself with laughter

[mxfreak21]

uh huh. not to be mean but no where on that trail is intimidating. its just flat out fun as hell. but, no where scary.

[mk1819webde]

that hurts!!^^

[drummtb333]

i love the mountain bike community. its like were all brothers.

[bluecanoe]

"I`m unbreakable"

[Aux1XC]

I became a full face believer all of a sudden too! Too bad nobody filmed it... :0

[yetti831]

Great Vid. How horrible are these guys! Need to spend more time training on trails rather than on the road!

[mxfreak21]

hahaha yes ! im 15 and i ride through that with out ease

[mxfreak21]

yeah those guys suck

[mtbfreak2000]

They don't suck, some of their crashes were pretty stupid though. In races like that people make a lot of mistakes. I've ridden that trail, from the top that section looks intimidating as hell so people get scared and mess up.
